Fourth Quarter 2011 Results

EDAP TMS SA (“EDAP” or the “Company”) had total consolidated revenue for the fourth quarter 2011 was EUR 7.5 million (USD 10.1 million), a 6% decrease compared to EUR 8.0 million (USD 10.8 million) for the fourth quarter 2010 and a 23% increase compared to EUR 6.1 million (USD 8.6 million) for the third quarter 2011.

Total revenue for the HIFU division was EUR 1.8 million (USD 2.4 million) for the fourth quarter 2011, compared to EUR 2.0 million (USD 2.6 million) for the same period last year. Results for the fourth quarter 2011 reflected the sale of one Ablatherm-HIFU device, as compared to two devices sold in the same period last year.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, total revenue for the lithotripsy division was EUR 5.8 million (USD 7.8 million), compared to EUR 6.1 million (USD 8.1 million) during the year ago period. During the fourth quarter 2011, the Company recorded sales of sixteen lithotripsy machines, comprised of seven Sonolith i-move devices, five Sonolith i-sys devices and four Sonolith Praktis devices, compared to a total of twenty devices sold in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter 2011 was EUR 2.8 million (USD 3.8 million), compared to EUR 3.0 million (USD 4.0 million) for the year ago period. Gross profit margin was 37.2% in the fourth quarter 2011, largely stable compared to 37.6% in the year ago period.

Operating expenses were EUR 3.2 million (USD 4.3 million) for the fourth quarter 2011, down 7% from EUR 3.4 million (USD 4.6 million) for the same period in 2010. Operating loss was EUR 371,000 (USD 499,000) for the fourth quarter 2011, compared to EUR 371,000 (USD 496,000 million) in the fourth quarter of 2010. Excluding operating expenses of EUR 154,000 (USD 207,000) associated with the U.S. FDA ENLIGHT clinical trial for Ablatherm-HIFU, fourth quarter 2011 operating loss was EUR 217,000 (USD 292,000).

Net loss for the fourth quarter 2011 was EUR 579,000 (USD 779,000), or EUR 0.04 per diluted share (USD 0.06 per diluted share), as compared to net loss for the fourth quarter of 2010 of EUR 7.2 million (USD 9.7 million), or EUR 0.56 per diluted share (USD 0.74 per diluted share). Net income for the fourth quarter 2011 included a non-cash interest expense of EUR 23,000 to adjust the Company’s outstanding convertible debt and warrants to fair market value.

At December 31, 2011, cash and cash equivalents, including short-term treasury investments, were EUR 6.5 million (USD 8.4 million), which reflected the stabilization of Company’s cash position. The Company was cash flow positive during the fourth quarter 2011 and generated EUR 1.0 million as a result of strong cash management.

Full Year 2011 Results

EDAP’s total consolidated revenue for the full year ended December 31, 2011 was EUR 22.3 million (USD 31.2 million), as compared to EUR 23.7 million (USD 31.3 million) for the full year 2010.   The 2011 revenue included the sale of 40 lithotripsy devices that featured a higher average selling price due to product innovation.

 
 

 
Gross profit for the full year 2011 was EUR 8.9 million (USD 12.4 million) and operating loss was EUR 2.5 million (USD 3.5 million), compared to EUR 9.5 million (USD 12.5 million) and EUR 3.8 million (USD 5.0 million), respectively, for the same period 2010.  The revenue shift was reflected in the lower gross profit, but was more than offset by reductions in operating expenses, which were EUR 11.4 million (USD 15.9 million) for the full year 2011, compared to EUR 13.3 million (USD 17.5 million) for the same period 2010.

Net loss for the full year 2011 was EUR 939,000 (USD 1.3 million), or EUR 0.07 per diluted share. The full year 2011 net loss included a non-cash interest income of EUR 2.4 million (USD 3.4 million) to adjust the Company’s convertible debt and outstanding warrants to fair value, and to reduce the outstanding convertible debt.

Recent Developments

In January 2012, EDAP streamlined its capital structure by exchanging its outstanding convertible debt and warrants for USD 10.0 million 9% non-convertible term notes due June 30, 2014.

In December 2011, EDAP installed its second Sonolith i-move lithotripter at USC Medical Center in Los Angeles and UC San Diego following the receipt of the US 510 clearance in August 2011 and expanded its U.S. sales pipeline to include a third device in its backlog that is on track to be delivered and installed in the first half of 2012.

In February 2012, EDAP’s Ablatherm-HIFU was featured in seven poster presentations supporting its efficacy for the treatment of localized prostate cancer at the 27th Annual European Association of Urology (EAU) Congress held in Paris, France.  The comprehensive data validates the international urology community’s support for Ablatherm-HIFU as a complement to surgery in addressing prostate cancer and EDAP’s proven ability to bring minimally invasive treatment to younger patients seeking effective treatments that afford quality of life preservation.
